Verse 1:
   E                                 B
As I was walking down rubadub square
      E                                         B
Not a chill to the weather but a nip to the air
A                E       A                    E
  From another direction she was caught in my eye
A                 E        A                   E
  It could be an illusion, but I might as well try
              B
Might as well try
 
Verse 2:
        E                                           B
She had rings on her fingers and bells on her shoes
      E                                          B
And I knew without asking she was into the blues
A                    E      A               E
  She wore scarlet begonias tucked into her curls
A               E            A              E
  I knew right away, she was not like other girls
            B
(Like other girls)
 
Bridge:
              Gb
Well, I ain't never been right, as I ain't never been wrong
   B                           E
It seldom works out the way it does in this song (hey)
       Gb
'Cause once in a while you get shown in the light
       B                          E
In the strangest of places if you look at it right

Rap Verse:
           A
It was the summer of love, and I thank the stars above
            B
Because the woman took the lovin' over me
    A
And just to gain her trust, I bought a microbus
          B
Because I sold up all my personal property
        A                         E
A tight tie-dyed dress, she was a psychedelic mess
   A                           E
We toured to the north, south, east and west
   A                          E
We sold some mushroom tea, we sold some ecstasy
        A                         E
We sold nitrous, opium, acid, heroin and PCP
          B
And now I hear the police coming after me
           B
Yes, now I hear the police coming after me
B
The one Scarlet, with the flowers in her hair
              B
She's got the police coming after me
 
Verse 3:
            E                                          B
Well, there ain't nothing wrong with the way she moves
    E                                         B
All scarlet begonias and a touch of the blues
A                         E              A                  E
  And there ain't nothin' wrong with the love that's in her eye
A                    E        A                    E
  I had to learn the hard way just to let her pass by
             B
Let her pass by
B                        B
Oh, just to let her pass by
